Is there a (good) Picross-clone on Steam?
I need more Picross. Mooooore. [/Picross-Addict]

On a random note: Deus Ex:HR is good, I like that there are so many different paths to advance through a "dungeon".
How does the original DE compare to it? (iow: should I play it afterwards)

Gentlemen, we can rebuild it. We have the capability to make the world's first enhanced store. Steam will be that store. Better than it was before.

You can do 8-10 checkouts per hour, should be able to buy more when an hour has passed from the last purchase of the lot.

Except that I've only made 2 purchases in the last 24 hours, and now I'm being blocked.

Guess I'll try in an hour (right before the sale ends) and see if I get lucky.

5 or so hours into Wolfenstein and it was most certainly worth all the hoops I had to jump through just to play it. I recommend if you are a fan of FPS' that you pick it up, best shooter I have played in a long while.

Can't Stop Laughing bundle is proving to be the buy of the sale, Battleblock Theater is phenomenal, go buy it now if you haven't already, and Castle Crashers is a lot more fun than the demo was. I would have passed on both this sale if not for the "price mistake" but I'm very glad I picked it up.

I decided to pull the trigger on contraption maker at the last second. Love me some TIM, and a 2 for one at 50 percent off is my kind of deal. Please apply if you like these type of physics puzzle games.

Can you show a screenshot of your settings? There should be a separate full-screen toggle if I remember correctly.

Try through Paypal if you have an account there. I had made no purchases for about 8 hours when I attempted and got the same message. I was wondering if it had something to do with using M&M cards. I didn't redeem them, but I used them 4 times for 6$ purchases.

I really like the visuals of the Sikkmod, really dark and grim, the way I wanna play it. If I buy the OG Doom 3 pack and Classic doom pack, I'll have spend less than BFG. I like controller support in my games as well, Doom 3 doesn't seem to have native support, but I recently purchased pinnacle game profiler so that's good.
Click to expand...
If I remember correctly, the early Dooms included in the BFG version are censored, so I wouldn't personally consider them a selling point for BFG. Classic pack is the real deal, and maybe more guaranteed to work with all the mods too?

I'll have my eyes peeled on ID game deals during Quakecon (17.-20.7). Would like to grab the classic Dooms, Quakes etc. in one big pack with a ridiculous discount.

I heard you need to mod the game to play at resolutions higher than 1080p. Maybe this is the problem?

I know, but trust me I've got plenty of games and got a lot of new stuff this sale already to keep me busy for a while. :) So I'm not too broke up over it.

Make sure a square on the left-hand side is selected -> from the drop-down list below (it defaults to "Team Fortress 2") select Steam Inventory -> search for your desired game using the nearby text box (hit enter to submit) -> click the game from the list of results to add it -> move to a right-hand square -> select TF2 from the aforementioned dropd-down list -> search for keys and/or real money -> click to add -> click the orange search button. You don't have to select a payment method, but it helps to narrow down results.

Edit: Beaten.

Steam screenshots don't seem to show the border but i have toggled fullscreen in the settings and resolution is at max along with all the graphics options
Click to expand...

Huh that's weird o.o Try setting fullscreen to OFF, set a non-native resolution and then set fullscreen to ON again.

This is in my personal opinion the best DS3/DS4 driver: http://forums.pcsx2.net/Thread-XInput-Wrapper-for-DS3-and-Play-com-USB-Dual-DS2-Controller

It doesn't feature touch-pad support yet for the DS4 but it works clean and silent for wired and wireless in the background, no tray-icons no nothing, just zero-configuration plug and play awesomeness aside from the initial setup, compatible with all XInput programs :) And there are some more indepth options if you like to tinker with it!
Click to expand...

No tray icons sounds good.

DS4Tool 1.2.2 supports touchpad though. Great for games with only partial controller support.

Thanks. When I find a trade how exactly do I trade with them, is it automated via site or do I add them and trade on steam?

The Source Hunter DLC will be included in the CE, if you happened to buy it over the standard edition.

Some folks link to their Dispenser.tf shops, which largely automates the process. Other times you'll need to either add them or use their trade offer URL.
